2018-19 TRIAD Needs Assessment - Parents

The Vanderbilt Kennedy Center’s TRIAD (Treatment and Research Institute for Autism Spectrum Disorders) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center is gathering information from educators and parents throughout Tennessee. Our goal is to support school teams and caregivers. The results of this survey will help us develop trainings and resources for each to use in collaboration with one another. We would greatly appreciate a few minutes of your time to complete this brief survey, which will serve as guidance for us in this initiative.
